A new release is out for We Love RolePlay’s current round! Senzafine’s release at the event is the Lothíriel dress, a brand line of gowns for the fair and lovely ladies! The dresses are color matched as closely as possible so that you can use the Aesbrennil shoes with them (as is the case with the Beriawen separates and Deorwyn gowns) for ease of use.

This dress comes in 4 separate HUD color packs, with each pack holding 4 colors each with gold and silver trim options. All color packs come with a super awesome Ribbon HUD with many more options. The Ribbon HUD allows you to choose ANY of the offered colors from all 4 color packs in Gold or Silver embroidery options as well as controls to hide or show the ribbons, should you so choose.

The dress comes in the usual 5 standard sizes plus 2 fuller sizes for those with more curves so stop by the event to try out a demo. Each pack is on special introductory sale price of L$325 (25% off normal pricing) so hurry before the month is over!

I will start off a short series of posts by showcasing past releases for Winter 2014 and 2015. I figured this to be a way to show you whats been going in past releases on without inundating everyone with too many posts or posts that were too long. Behold! A winter seasonal 2014 (and early 2015) look at product releases that never made it to the website individually! See anything you like (that isn’t noted not released yet)?

Senzafine was invited to take part in the Fantasy Collective last month, marking their anniversary. They created a very fun theme that allowed people to be imaginative in all the fun ways there are available at a RL Renaissance Faire. For this one, I wanted to stick to the theme of the Renaissance dresses you always see the court ladies wearing at these faires. It has a very fairytale quality about it with the color combos used being so vivid and at times a bit otherworldly. The dress here is called Caterina and it is available only at the Fantasy Collective until the 15th. It wont be in the store until January so get hoppin now!

Trying to find time to catch up with posts can be a daunting thing. Just when I think I have time, one of my jobs (I have 2 other jobs on top of running Senzafine, btw) has an emergency marketing materials request. Fortunately that has lulled a bit and now I can focus back on getting Senzafine back in running order. With that, I want to update you all on past event releases here, currently running events will be in separate posts. One that has come and gone within the month of October was a new annual mega-event, Mystic Realms Faire. There was 1 brand new release and an extension color line release there from Senzafine. The new dress, Elaisse has a regal elvish feel, with a short-sleeved robe over a beautiful underdress. This line comes with the usual 8 color combos. These will be available at the mainstore this weekend.

The extension color line release was to the Mirdain Leggings. This set was released for both women’s and men’s versions in new leather colors! These also will be put out into the mainstore this weekend.

As in the September releases post, although the events are over, you can still stop by the main store and grab your favorite colors starting this weekend! Visit the In-World Store

This month, RMK is hosting a fantastic halloween event that provides games and chances at winning fantabulous prizes! Senzafine was accepted to take part in this annual event and I’m happy to show what my dark little mind came up with! First is the prize. In order to get this, you must play games and win coins. Once you win 10 coins by doing these activities, you can spend them at the Dream Gacha.. for a chance to win one of many prizes provided by many designers. Because this event and the main website is primarily in Japanese, I would like to thank Allegory Malaprop of Schaudenfreude (a fellow designer at the event) for providing a guide in English on how to go about playing the games. Links will be provided at the end of this post. The Dream Gacha prize from Senzafine is a spellbook that you can not only hold (it has a pose!) you can also click it to cast your first spell! (ooo sounds)

We also have a new product debuting at the RMK Market at ground-level of the sim. The Willow armwarmers were made to be a perfect autumn compliment to the Berenice sleeveless dresses (as seen on the ad). They are also elegant enough to pair up with many other outfits as our bloggers and customers have done. Have fun with them and know that there are more colors to come soon!

Other than the ongoing Seelie Court event, I’ve also had a few other releases that sadly I was unable to post about due to RL craziness. We <3 Role-Play was one of the more challenging rounds for me as I wanted to put as much detail into this as possible to make it feel more than what its polygons claimed it was.

Texturing, my friends, is really important to game companies. This proves true especially in MMO’s. New content can be challenging for frequent releases, so many times they use the same models and geometry and spin it a different way.

I want to bring that same workflow into SL and I know of a few other designers that do the same. The dress I featured this round, had a lot of details in texture. When textured differently it will be like a whole different dress, even though the model shape is the same. The first texturing of this dress though, I went as far out as I could on details. Enough talk, on to Aravereth.. the lovely court gown!

The next release was for A Clockwork Spiral. Many of you in-world know how wildly successful it was due both to the build as well as everything the merchants were offering. We raised so much more than last year for the National Kidney Foundation.. and we are talking like, numbers that were creeping in to Cursed’s most successful event: World Goth Fair.

I released an officer’s jacket for women that dipped both into Steampunk as well as Dieselpunk, though my aim was more for the latter. Echelon is a new series I want to explore further but we shall start with the ladies first. This one comes in 8 colors, all reminiscent of military life in earlier days. There was a special color set which donated 100% and a small percentage of all other sales at the event both to benefit the NKF. Onwards to the ad image!

I am so excited to share this news with you. As some of you may know, I’ve had discussions with fellow oldbies about how much I missed the exploration factor of a shop. This is something that’s been slowly fading away from SL as people move on. Phedre Rossini of Southpaw wants to bring the feels back with a new event managed jointly by her staff and Sohma Dix of Paper Moon. This event has been going on for 2 months and a new round is just around the corner.

It’s been a very busy past two months RL that I was unable to update everyone here on the releases. So far, we have had 2 different types of releases at this new event. The releases are now out at the store and I hope that each of you will enjoy them!

The first release was for round one “Welcome to Faerie” I was happy to provide a unisex offering and created a full color set for the “Mirdain” Elvensmith tunics. There are now 8 colors available at the main store and even the original colors were re-worked so they are much more vibrant and have a better tactile visual!

For round two “The Shining Ones” we celebrated the classic elves. Being a Tolkien nut, however.. I veered from the classic definition of an elf and went with the elves of Middle Earth. For this, another tunic set was created called “Randir” meaning Wanderer/Pilgrim. It’s meant to evoke that wanderlust in us all.. so the bottoms are slightly dingy with dust and the tunic itself feels more travel-worn than usual. It comes in a set of 8 colors and is also available in both men’s and women’s.

Footwear, you ask? Yep! I’ve taken a dive into accessories for this round of Genre! The theme? Sci-Fi! Now if I had more time and less late late lateness.. I would have had a whole outfit worth of items for you all. Because I couldn’t, I decided to offer these boots in 4 colors instead of 1. Win win! These ones are actually versatile for many different types of roleplay, not just Sci-Fi! I saw some really well-done pairings by bloggers of these shoes with outfits that were of other genres. Once I create the outfit to go with these, you all will see where I was initially headed with the idea. Enjoy!
